I should have mentioned that I had to install those hose clamps because that crimped fitting started leaking a week after buying it. That's all I had on me, and it did fix the leak. Still a little upset that I have to install a bypass line and valve myself, but it is what it is.
I understand you added the hose clamps to stop a leaking connection. But please remember- that should be considered a TEMPORARY fix. If the PEX crimp isn't sealing, the connector could be cracked, smashed inside the pipe, a piece of debris in the connection, or who knows what else.
A water leak can be devastating to your RV, not something you want to take a chance with. ;)
